Will M Dollar Outflow WASHINGTON UPI — The war in Viet Nam is threatening to upset the Johnson administration's plans for erasing that troublesome red ink in the United States’ international books. Treasury Secretary Henry H. Fowler says the administration still plans to end the dollar outflow this year. But if Viet Nam costa “rise Sharply" over what’s now expected, then the government may have to clamp down harder somewhere else in order to make food m its promise, Fowler told a news conference Monday. The treasury secretary voiced this sober note ai thi Commerce Department announced that the nation’s balance of payments deficit was slashed to $U billion last year — the best showing in nearly a decade. Presidint Johnson last year ashed UAL bankers and bustleans and investments “voluntarily." While Funder declined to my when the administration would try to tighten up if Viet Nun get out at hand, he said there would be no “mandatory controls’’ over private capital

At Ms request today for fiscal 1956, Johnson asked 912.6 million for the Selective Service system to meet the substantially increased cost of higher inductions due to the war in Viet

Nam.

The President estimated that inductions for the fiscal year ending next June 30 would total about 260,000. When the 1966 appropriations request was submitted about a year ago, the number of estimated Inductions for the fiscal year was 125,000. The President, in a letter to Speaker John W. McCormack, said the Teacher Corps and rent supplement programs were “vital to our efforts to improve the quality of life in America.” The Teachers Corps would consist of 3,700 experienced teachers and teaching interns to serve in schools with concentrations of children from low-in-come families. They would be made available upon request by local echool boards that are operating under the 1964 echool aid bill in which they were given over 61 billion to Improve education In poverty areas. The Teacher Corpe would augment thatyrognm. The rent supplement program would provide federal auistanee for thoee In acme areas of km-incoue housing. The government would make up the difference between the market rent for modestly designed dwellings and 25 per cent of the occupant’s income.

Branigin, Board Discuss State's Retirement Fund

INDIANAPOLIS U P I—Gov•mor Branigin said Monday he : boHeveo "it to toe duty of toe I governor to present to toe legislature in cold, stark figures” too generally ignored debt of Indiana to its retirement fund. Branigin said the unfunded liability totals more than $150 million. > Branigin made the comment at a State Finance Board meeting during discussion of a letI ter from a man inquiring about I the statue of the pension fund I set up for public employees. I Indiana-has five such funds, I of- which the Indiana Teacher I Retirement Fund and the PubI lie Employes Retirement Funds I are the chief ones. The others I are judges, state police and I state accounts hoard. ? I “It might be a good time to I discuss funding that liability,” I Branigin said. “It has always' | come up in the past at a time _ when the fundings would mean a new tax and no legislator wants that.” A current acturial report Is not available. The 1964 report

of the PERF showed 638 million unfunded. The 1963 report for £he teachers fund estimated the legislature should have appropriated $33 million a year for 20 years in order to get the fund brought up to the level provited in the original plan. Currently, and for many years, toe state contributed to the retirement funds on a “pay as you go” basis rather than dig up the additional money needed to fully fund the pension plans. State Treasurer Jack New, a finance board member, said he feels the pension funds poses a serious financial problem to the state and a review should be made now to determine their future. Branigin gave the other board members a lesson In red-tape cuting. The City of Peru had requested a 6100,000 loan from the I n d u s t rial Development Fund to construct an airport. Because of a reference in a supporting letter. New raised the question of whether the application was an effort to ac-

quits an airport after toe rest* dents already had turned down a bond issue for the same purpose. The reference left toe Impression such an issue had been rejected in referendum. Branigin walked out of his office and returned with a Peru telephone directory. He phoned Mayor Paul Biff. Then ho reported that the mayor said no bond issue ever had been offered for a vote on the airport and there was little objection to an airport, now. "They could lose Bunker Hill Air Force Base and they would be In a heck of a shape if that happened,” Branigin said. “I think they deserve this loan." New and State Auditor Mark France joined Mm in unanimously approving toe loan and Branigin again phoned Biff and advised him of the approval. Also approved were loans from the same fund of 319,000 to the Town of LaFontaine for planning a waste disposal and water system and $8,963 for the Town of Atlanta for a sewage system. »

Club Meets With

Valentine for Janie.” A pleasand social time was spent with the hosteu.

Mrs. Sean Hostess To Weit Floyd Club

Book Memorial To Mrs. Manhart The Greencastie - Putnam County Library has recently received the book, “The Days of Henry Thoreau,” by Walter Harding, presented in memory of Mrs. Florence Manhart, by the Tuesday Reading Club. In this biography, the author narrates toe events in Thoreau’s life year by year, using the simple, intimate, homely details which portray his personality and stress his achievements as a writer rather than as a philo-

sopher.

Henry Thoreau was a lover of nature, a vibrant creative human being. He wanted to write and sought solitude in which to work. He got his opportunity when Ralph Waldo Emerson purchased some land on the shores of Walden Pond, and gave him permission to build there. He built a simple cabin and moved into it on July

4, 1845.

The contemporary liter ary scene of Thoreau’s time gave the opportunity for many interesting and famous friendships, including Emerson, Bronson Alcott, Ellery Channing, Horace Greeley, Hawthorne and

others.

Mir. Harding has portrayed Henry Thoreau as a great writer and prose stylist. He has written a thorough and scholarly book which will be enjoyed by many readers.
